RoR Course: The Rebel Frame & the Illusion of Thinking
Artificial Intelligence did not begin with Silicon Valley. It began with philosophers, mathematicians, and rebels who refused to accept that intelligence was mystical. Inspired by Rebels of Reason: The Long Road from Aristotle to ChatGPT & AI’s Heroes Who Kept the Faith by John Willis with Derek Lewis, this 8-part live course explores how AI evolved — not as a hype cycle, but as a centuries-long intellectual revolution. Over eight bi-weekly sessions, we explore how AI learned to count, formalize logic, compute, search, represent knowledge, learn from data, model uncertainty, and ultimately generate language. No heavy math or technical prerequisites are required.

Build Skills — Teach Your AI Agents How You Work
Tuesday, September 8, 2026 at 12:00 PM ET
The difference between an AI that gives generic answers and an AI that works like a trusted teammate comes down to one thing: skills. A skill is a reusable playbook — your rules, your voice, your process — written down once so your AI can apply it every time. Write it once, and every draft comes out in your voice, every report follows your format, and every task runs your way without re-explaining yourself in every chat. Mark Hinkle will show you how to write your first skill — and how the same file can work across the AI tools you already use. No technical background required.

Tuesday, September 15, 2026 at 12:00 PM ET
In Part One, you saw how AI can build a working web app from a plain-English description. Now for the honest follow-up: what does it take to ship something real — an app customers actually use, that handles data you care about, and that can't fall over on a Tuesday? Good news: you still don't need to become an engineer. You need a lightweight process — the same discipline professional software teams use, minus the jargon. Mark Hinkle walks through the software development lifecycle the way a business owner should hear it: as a practical checklist for keeping AI-built apps from becoming AI-built messes. Missed Part One? Come anyway — we'll open with a quick two-minute recap.

Monday, April 20, 2026 at 12:00 PM ET
What if you could go from 'I have a business idea' to a live, professional website in about an hour — without writing a single line of code yourself? In this hands-on workshop, you'll use AI tools to build and deploy a real, production-ready website with contact forms, newsletter signup, SEO optimization, mobile responsiveness, accessibility compliance, and security headers. You'll tell the AI what you want, and a team of 19 specialized AI skills will handle the implementation. No coding experience required — if you can describe what you want in plain English, you have everything you need.
